1) I read chapter one of the Artforms book. I read from 3:15 until 4:00. It taught me a little bit about some art history. It showed peoples' art and what the art symbolized.
2) I read the Martin Luther King article. I didn't know that the "I have a dream", was once called something else.
Great Job! thanks (anne)
3) I began reading Chapter one of the Connect College Reading book.
4) I have a few goals for my future life. And have many steps to take to be able to achieve these goals. I want to be a stable person, and not struggle with paying bills. I'd like to have nice things, but in order to do this, I have to take college serious, and make good grades. My goals are to have an "A" average in every class. No lower than a "B" atleast. I need to study for all tests, and not just assume that I will pass a test, without studying.
Admirable goals! Easy "A's" are rare. I am confident you will succeed. (anne)
5) I began reading "The Wish List", by Eoin Colfer. I read the first chapter.
Meg and Belch, had been robbing old man Lowrie's apartment. Old man Lowrie had heard them, and walked in and asked what they were doing. Belch's dog attacked the old man, and wouldn't let go until Belch had ordered him to. Meg got the gun from Lowrie and told Belch to make the dog let go, or she was going to shoot him (the dog). The dog finally let go, and Belch got the gun and pointed at Meg, but Meg jumped out the window to escape. Belch made the dog catch her, and finally Belch found the dog and Meg and threatened to shoot Meg. He knew not to shoot her, because the gas tank around her would also blow up. He held the gun in the air, and shot, and killed the three of them right then and there. Meg had seen herself dead, and was seeing her way to heaven or hell.
6) I read the second chapter of "The Wish List".
The second chapter was about where the soul of Meg Finn had gone to. The devil had expected to see her today, but her soul had been lost. She had equal amount of points on her good and bad side, and was in Heaven. She had became the most popular soul. Beelzebub had called Peter to ask about her. Peter said there was nothing that could be done, but Beelzebub had lied and was going to get Meg to add points to her negative side to get her in hell.
7) Still reading "The Wish List".
Meg was scared to open her eyes, because she didn't know where she would wake up at. Flit was talking to her telling her where to go, and she wanted to get out of the tunnel, and be alive again. Flit didn't know if going through the wall of the tunnel would make her come alive again or not.
8) "The Wish List"
Meg was sent back down to Earth to give her one last chance, and see what she would do. To see if she would do good or bad. She did good and helped the old man Lowrie. Beelzebub wanted to send the dog and boy back down to convince Meg into doing bad things so that she would go to hell.
9) Old man Lowrie's leg had still been hurting, even after two years later. The doctors said he'd always walk with a limp. He saw Meg and was surprised to see her, because she was dead. A bookshelf had fallen on Lowrie and Meg had to get it off of him. She grabbed his hand to help him up, and he spirit was trapped inside of Lowrie's body. She hated being inside of his body, and finally gotten out. Lowrie had felt young again when her spirit was inside of him. Lowrie tried explaining everything to Meg that he had mistaken in his life. What he had did wrong, and every decision he made was the wrong one.
10) Beelzebub told Belch to go find Meg and make her mean. When Belch had gotten off the elevator to go find Meg, he was thinking of a way to get Meg to do wrong. He thought he'd go and kill Lowrie and then Meg wouldn't be able to help Lowrie and would go to hell. But the memory that helped Belch told him it was a bad idea, and wouldn't work. So he walked to Lowrie's apartment to figure out what to do.
11) Meg and Lowrie left to go find Sissy, which was now a TV actress. Lowrie fell asleep on the bus on the way there, so Meg put her spirit in his body and went and got some new clothes. Meg slipped out of his body and he woke up and liked what he had looked like. When Meg finally told him how she paid for all of the things, he was not happy.
12) I read the article in the Connect Reading book about being curious about things. I think when we get older, we tend to not ask questions much because when we are younger, we ask so many questions and people get annoyed by it and tell us to stop asking questions, so eventually we just get tired of being told to be quiet so we just don't ask questions anymore. Then some people are just way too shy to ask questions in front of a large group of people.
Sad but true. It does not have to be that way however, keep asking, someone will answer. :)
13) "The Wish List"
Meg and Lowrie rode to where Sissy was and talked to the guard and the guard wouldn't open the gate. Meg's spirit went into the guard's body and flipped a pink switch and made him an emotional person. Then Lowrie ask him again to open the gate, and the guard let him in without any second thoughts.
14) "The Wish List"
Meg and Lowrie made it into where Sissy was. Sissy started talking about what the show was about that day and it was about lost love. Lowrie stood up to leave because he said he couldn't do it. And everyone started looking at him and Sissy recognized him. He told Meg to get into him and make him go and kiss her. So Meg got in and had to get through all of the security guards. When she finally got to Sissy, Belch had found them and knocked Meg right out of Lowrie's body, so Lowrie had to do the kissing part himself. Then they left, and he told Sissy he wouldn't be back.
15) "The Wish List"
Lowrie and Meg were talking and she asked what number two on his list was. And he explained why he wanted to do that. When he was 11 he had to go to boarding school to get tough, but he ruined his chance to be popular because he was smart, and didn't go against the law.
16) "The Wish List"
Belch and Elph were looking for Meg, they called Peter to see if he'd seen her. Meg and Lowrie got to the park where he wanted to go to. He would only sneak in because that's how he was suppose to do it over 50 years ago. Meg started to worry about Lowrie because of how bad his health was. There was a camera watching the park, and Meg made it point to another direction so it wouldn't catch Lowrie sneaking over the fence.
17) "The Wish List"
Meg got inside Lowrie's head so that she could climb the fence for him. She was having a hard time getting over, she could only imagine how hard it would be for Lowrie to actually do it. They finally got over the fence and she got out of his head. His heart was throbbing, but he finally quit resting and didn't give up.
18) "The Wish List"
Lowrie started talking to himself, and then a security guard came up and was going to take them to jail. Murk, the guard, could actually see Meg, and she couldn't figure out why. Lowrie and Meg started telling the guard a story so that they wouldn't go to jail, and he believed their story. So the guard went and got a soccer ball for Lowrie to kick like he was suppose to over 50 years ago. Meg got inside Lowrie, and the guard came back and asked where Meg had went. He told him that she had a phone call she had to take. So Meg kicked the soccer ball, but it didn't go far, the guard told her to imagine it as someone's head and she thought of her stepdad and then she kicked it really hard.
